This Iowa Pub Serves A Breaded Pork Tenderloin So Big You’ll Wish You’d Planned Ahead For The Homemade Pie

The owners of this pub raise hogs for a living, and their breaded tenderloin once won the title of best in Iowa. That is a farm-to-table story with serious bragging rights. I love when a place backs up its name like that. The tenderloin gets hand-pounded in the kitchen. Then...

Library asks Ames to enforce an overnight camping ban on its property

The Ames Public Library may start enforcing overnight restrictions to curtail littering and vandalism and keep people from camping on the property. The Ames Library Board of Trustees asked the City of Ames to restrict access during specific hours. City parks have similar restrictions. The board recently said, in a letter to the City of Ames, the library has witnessed "dramatic growth in overnight safety and health concerns on the exterior grounds that cannot be managed by library staff alone." The board said "troublesome activities" occur when the library is closed, including people sleeping near the building, alcohol consumption and drug use. The board said those sleeping nearby have startled upon awakening and have allegedly pulled knives on staff members and followed employees. The library is closed from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. More: ISU professor accused of killing wife dies from self-inflicted gunshot The board is concerned about staff safety should a situation escalate, Library Board Secretary Debra Gibson said during the Nov. 10 Ames City Council meeting.

Roland-Story has built one of best Iowa high school football defenses

With five minutes left in its Iowa high school football state quarterfinal game at No. 2 Van Meter, Roland-Story was back on its heels. The Norsemen held a comfortable two-touchdown lead over the Bulldogs, 28-14, but Van Meter was driving. After Roland-Story raced to a 21-0 first-half lead, Van Meter settled in and gradually shifted the game's momentum. Van Meter had the ball on the Roland-Story 8-yard line facing third-and-5 in the final minutes of the game. If the Bulldogs could find the end zone, they would make it a one-score game with plenty of time to get the ball back for a potential tying or go-ahead drive. Bulldog quarterback Keenan Lundy entered the game among the top five rushers in 2A with an average of nearly 150 yards per game, but he had been held under 100 yards by a Roland-Story defense that had locked in on him for most of the night. When he took the snap on the pivotal third-down play, Lundy scrambled to his left and, with Norse defenders bearing down on him, he tried to force a pass to receiver Blake Becker in the end zone. His throw was on line, but Roland-Story defensive back

Regents committee weighs enrollment growth, IT cuts to save $35M

A committee is studying how to save money at Iowa's three public universities by potentially recruiting community college and making cuts to IT. The Revenue Enhancement and Productivity Study, or REAPS initiative was established by the Iowa Board of Regents in December 2025 as a "comprehensive review of revenue streams and cost efficiencies across the Regents enterprise." The board established a target savings of $35 million over three years, which is roughly 5% of all Regent appropriations from the state general fund.
